I've got no shortage of Twitter detractors on my friendslist, and given that tweets typically range from mundane to inane I can mostly agree (even if I'm a perpetrator myself). Twitter, is, however, the ultimate expression of millions of monkeys with typewriters, and as the saying goes, eventually they'll come out with Hamlet. How will we recognize it? Odds are it'll be picked up by favrd. In the meantime, it has a great signal to noise ratio. Check it out--even if you don't like Twitter. (If you are on Twitter, it's not going to pick up your favorites unless you tell it to, so don't forget to sign up.)

My replacement laptop has a Blu-Ray drive, and Amazon had a decent sale on some movies over the weekend, so I picked up a couple of them. Blade Runner looks quite good, but honestly, I don't need to see the film grain and Ray Liotta's makeup in higher resolution on Goodfellas. Actually, you can kinda see makeup everywhere older films, so unless it was shot in 70mm like Lawrence of Arabia or Hamlet I wouldn't worry about spending the extra money on a Blu-Ray version if the DVD version is available.

Monday night I picked up a four-pack of Delirium Tremens, thinking it was less expensive than it actually is. It's quite good, but neither three times as good as Newcastle nor 4.75 times as good as Yuengling, so I'll probably stick to the more budget conscious beers. Also, Hamlet.
